kib0ne Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 This is a proprostromonstrosity! In all my years a member of BPDWorld I have never seen such a proprostromonstrosity. This is the proprostromonstrosity of all proprostromonstrosities. In my top ten list of propostromonstrosities, this propostromonstrosity has to be number 1! This is the ULTIMATE propostromonstrosity!!! if there were a TV show of internet proprostromonstrosities, this would be the headliner. "And in at # 1 with the greatest proprostromonstrosity of all time ... ". At a propostromonstrosity award show, this propostromonstrosity would win ALL propostromonstrosity awards! It's THAT propostromonstrous! I demand an explanation for this proprostromonstrosity and I want to know what you propose to resolve this proprostromonstrosity!?... Ok Ok, you are a good man and I know you will not have planned this proprostromonstrosity deliberately to have such a proprostromonstrous impact on the peasants in situ as you care for us all equally. So we can work through this proprostromonstrosity together as a community. So what can we do to help sort this mother of all proprostromonstrosities, before it escalates to something unimaginable beyond any known proprostromonstrosity?

ThePath66 Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I also came on here tonight to find some parts of the board all of a sudden is protected from me so I ask myself what the hell did I or did not do to have part of the board resricted to me I just joined here. it wasn't like this a day or to ago so I guess this is the part where I don't belong here. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelliemanic Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 No offense guys, and feel free to call me all the names under the sun... but I wont be paying for anything or becoming a 'welcomer' I've added pretty much all of my friends from here onto MSN or facebook/Myspace... I chat to them there... The rest will know where to find me.I'm not a performing seal.. I'm not here to do your promoting for you.. I've got enough on my plate living day-to-day without having to do tricks every time I want to use the chat room, or crisis forums.I'm more than happy to support people, talk to them and offer them reassurance and advice... but I'll do it on my terms thanks.Not yours.

SuperTues Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Your focusing yet again on what you can not do rather than what you actually can do.Would letting your gp know about us harm you? would telling your nurse? getting some people to join our newsletter? NoRequests were made and no one helped. This is what has happened as a result of what, as i said if you can think of a better way id be happy to hear about it.Actually you'll find I asked what I can do but you're not answering the question Josh. I'm not here to pay off your debts. And again, I live in THAILAND - I don't have a GP, I don't have a nurse, I don't know anyone other than those on this site with BPD.A better way? Close the site - you obviously can't handle it.Samaritans might offer a call back, but I've learned from so many helpline calls here that an overwhelming number of people with BPD are turned away by the Samaritans when they are in crisis because their needs are "too complex". They seem ever so helpful... and errm last time I checked they didn't have the additional costs of forums to run. I suppose Josh could always get rid of the boards if samaritans have got it so right. Plus they might appeal to non-users, but as Emma I think it was wrote somewhere, only 1 in 500 donation applications are successful - have you seen how long those forms take to fill out?The Samaritans don't turn away anyone other than those being agressive or looking for sexual gratification. The Samaritans have a 24/7 nationwide helpline, numerous call centres, and an email and text serivce to run, not including festival support and volunteer training - you think all of that is done for free? They have their volunteers out collecting money, they have wristbands, they have badges, they try to organise local fundraisers while at the same time trying to raise awareness of their cause; our cause. You don't just have to fill in a form to donate to the Samaritans, you can easily put money in the collection tins or donate directly to your local centres, and those forms are the length they are because thats what registered charities have to do.
